I think both the subject line and the description is fairly clear he's 
talking about Manager from multiprocessing :-)

py> from multiprocessing import Manager
py> Manager
<function Manager at 0xb7c6ac6c>
py> help(Manager)

Help on function Manager in module multiprocessing:

Manager()
    Returns a manager associated with a running server process

    The managers methods such as `Lock()`, `Condition()` and `Queue()`
    can be used to create shared objects.
